"An incisive and sympathetic examination of the case for ending the practice of imprisonment. Despite its omnipresence and long history, imprisonment is a deeply troubling practice. In the United States and elsewhere, prison conditions are inhumane, prisoners are treated without dignity, and sentences are extremely harsh. Mass incarceration and its devastating impact on black communities have been widely condemned as neoslavery or "the new Jim Crow." Can the practice of imprisonment be reformed, or does justice require it to be ended altogether? In The Idea of Prison Abolition, Tommie Shelby examines the abolitionist case against prisons and its formidable challenge to would-be prison reformers. Philosophers have long theorized punishment and its justifications, but they haven't paid enough attention to incarceration or its related problems in societies structured by racial and economic injustice. Taking up this urgent topic, Shelby argues that prisons, once reformed and under the right circumstances, can be legitimate and effective tools of crime control. Yet he draws on insights from black radicals and leading prison abolitionists, especially Angela Davis, to argue that we should dramatically decrease imprisonment and think beyond bars when responding to the problem of crime. While a world without prisons might be utopian, The Idea of Prison Abolition makes the case that we can make meaningful progress toward this ideal by abolishing the structural injustices that too often lead to crime and its harmful consequences."

Het elektronisch toezicht bestaat vijftien jaar in België. Na een wat aarzelende start is het ET de afgelopen jaren uitgegroeid tot één van de belangrijkste modaliteiten van strafuitvoering in ons land. Het aantal enkelbanden en ondertoezichtgestelden stijgt jaar na jaar. De toepassingsmogelijkheden dijen almaar verder uit, van de strafuitvoering naar de voorlopige hechtenis, en mogelijk binnenkort ook naar de fase van de straftoemeting. Intussen wordt volop geëxperimenteerd met nieuwe technologieën, zoals spraakherkenning en GPS.Maar, tot op welke hoogte lost het ET de hoge verwachtingen in? Het Rekenhof en het Europese antifoltercomité stelden vast dat de druk op de Belgische gevangenissen daarmee niet verdween. Integendeel: terwijl het aantal enkelbanden steeg, nam ook de gevangenispopulatie in versneld tempo toe. Bovendien lijken kwaliteitsvolle selectie en begeleiding het steeds meer te moeten afleggen tegen de macht van het getal: wordt de samenleving daar werkelijk beter van? Bovenal roept de snelheid waarmee tezelfdertijd op zoveel verschillende fronten - regelgeving, uitvoeringspraktijk en technologie - aan het ET wordt gesleuteld vragen op bij direct betrokkenen en de buitenwereld. Zijn de dagen van het ooit zo geroemde Belgische model, gestoeld op een evenwichtige mix van technologie en professionele begeleiding, definitief geteld?
